The first and often most important thing that mentally ill people need is care that they can access in their communities. What little mental health care that is available is often only in psychiatric hospitals in capital cities. That means that people who live in very remote rural areas have to travel great distance to get treatment. This transport isn’t free and many people can’t afford it.
